Henry County always does and excellent job hosting. It's been there for 50 years and I hope they have the tournament there for 50 more.

Even though these past two seasons were "down" seasons for the 8th, the past two tournaments have been outstanding. This years tournament had many great games, including a 19 point 4th quarter comeback by Gallatin County to win at the buzzer over Simon Kenton. Last year Spencer County brought probably the best crowd in the 50 year history of the 8th region tournament at Henry County. They played 3 amazing games but fell short in the finals. I don't have anything against Oldham, but I really wish Spencer would have won the region last year. That would have been one heck of a crowd at Rupp and an amazing story. Even though they didn't win the championship, I'm sure they will be talking about last year's team for years and years to come.

Can't wait for next year's tournament, I'm sure it will be just as good as the last 50.
